hupsis tupsis

4,096 × a Feeling For some time now, the core of Tuomas Linna’s artistic practice has been shaped by various mathematical systems, processes of measurement, and structural frameworks that determine the form of the work. Linna has noted that repetition and enumeration function as calm¬ing and stabilising working methods for him, while at the same […]
Void is verb

from: Adrianos Efthymiadis to: Jacksun Bein date: May 14, 2026, 6:07 AM subject: Revised text? Re: Passing ships in- I picked up a Latin dictionary and looked up the word vacuum. It may seem obvious now, but at the time it wasn’t, that the word doesn’t change at all. It arrives in English already intact, […]
BELTLOOP

The zoetrope, a small rotating disc from the 19th century, which creates the illusion of movement through a sequence of individual frames, is the precursor to cinema. A modest invention, situated somewhere between entertainment, science, and philosophy. What the eye tricks us into perceiving is called persistence of vision: the ability of the brain and […]
Derrière la luette

From the bottom of the sink to inside the body, from pipes to organs, Anastasia Simonin and Kazuo Yagi Marsden’s sculptures replay mechanisms of drainage and sanitation, revealing what flows through us as much as what we reject. The work displaces familiar situations and recompose them into ambiguous ensembles, where materials meet and disrupt their […]
Object of Devotion

rusty metal, radiant magenta shelves, 1980s gay porn, towering sculptures scraping the heavens, urinal dividers, textured ambient soundscapes, soft sinking mattresses Object of Devotion gathers a delicious mix of sculpture, sound, installation, and performance. The exhibition lingers on two artistic practices that are charged with material intensity, affect, and critical force. Here, matter is unravelled: […]

Je ne compte facilement les jours, j’espère J’étais accompagné et je n’étais pas libre. J’étais heureux de passer chez toi comme la fois précédente. Comment vas-tu? et […]

If you look at pictures tracing the evolution of Bugs Bunny, you’ll notice a considerable divergence between the late-1930s prototype and the modern rendering of 2010. Aesthetically, the previously short, pale and podgy rabbit with a pointed nose appears worlds apart from the tall and slender, silver-furred dandy with his crisp white chest and pointed […]
Shapeshifters

Shapeshifters Monika Grabuschnigg, Tobias Izsó, Sabina Knetlová, Oskar Rink, Dennis Scholl, Alexander Tinei Curator: Michal Stolárik The obsession with altering identity, appearance, or destiny has long defined the human condition. We gravitate towards myths of vampires, werewolves, and other creatures that transcend human boundaries—as if reality itself were inherently insufficient. It is not always an […]
ERASE / REWIND

“And then she was asleep, with silver tears running down her cheeks. Hall switched the car to auto-guide and put his arm around the girl. They purred softly up a hill, into tunknown countryside. Then, a blast of icy terror tore at Hall. He hit the braking stud — The road ended a hundred feet […]
If the Moon Had a Mouth It Would Swallow All the Fishes

Two winding serpents, a house-cloud, red rain falling like code. Across fields of white, circles appear as lights or moons, triangles as mountains or temples. Moving between pictogram and fable, Stephen Felton’s paintings seem to draw on the ritual imagery of ancient worlds. Yet their point of departure lies elsewhere: in the mystery of Renaissance […]
